It seems more efficient to train Air Force pilots for the roles like the one mentioned above as many U.S. Astronauts come from the Air Force. Still, whatever millitary spacecraft and other space borne infrastructure we may put up there can be taken out with a bucket of sand. Travelling at orbital speeds, sand will destroy everything in its path, cover a wide area, and remain a long term hazard. A country like North Korea can easily accomplish this. The most optimal approach is for the space capable countries to cooperate and develop space based infrastructure to support industrial scale specialized manufacturing and a launching platform for deep space missions.

If we had this space force early enough in America's history, it wouldn't be overrun with aliens like it is today. "Slartibartfast, post: 4674836, member: 500061"]Trump's space cadets. With extra stars on their space uniforms. I may win that Trump-in-a-7-star-uniform bet yet. Seven stars is clearly appropiate: One for each branch of service plus one for commander in chief. How could be have been so limited not so see his real goal is galactic fleet admiral. Bone Spurs? Trump don't need feet in space. Don't forget about the first space based resort. Weightless sex would be interesting and I would imagine the rooms closest to the center of the resort would be the most expensive, as artificial(centrifugal) gravity would be weakest there.

He'll be watching FOX, expecting plaudits recognizing his visionary and futuristic leadership. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outer_Space_Treaty Actually, it is apparently possible to combine separate laser beams into one beam using a diamond.

We need to develop the ability to extract resources from asteroids, moons, and planets. We need to have the capability to be able to build structures, energy sources, including rocket rocket fuel. One nation will not be able to do this successfully on its own due to cost, personnel, and resource requirements. "Slartibartfast, post: 4674890, member: 500061"]Trump speed and Trumpsporters?... Really the guy is an idiot to do this. He probably wants to carve is face on the moon as Mt Rushmore is occupied. Why not just just "erase" the portraits on Mount Rushmore and start over? Actually, Mount Rushmore is probably not big enough for him. We need to think big. The moon would be ok, but it is so far. Maybe Trump would be ok with a yuge factory or resort in low Earth orbit made in his image.
I was chatting with a friend in Cali who managed to escape the clutches of L Ron Hubbard's Scientology, the major space epic corporation/church. I do wonder to what extent visceral dislike of Trump comes from knowing grandiose narcissists. You have two major types, fragile needy (someone's mother in law you know) and grandiose like Ron and Donny. Donny really has little to do with left/right politics, it is hateable just because of his personality. Looking at this for uniform ideas. Perhaps Trump could bring back capes?
Hilarious Fucking love SStroopers; I for one can't wait for the recruiting commercials; Spoiler: Acosta doesn't make it
"We choose to go to the moon and do the other things, not because they are easy but to distract from Robert Muller" - witch hunt. I also have a feeling that little Barron who they say had a whole floor of Trump Tower to himself and seems to be autistic wanted dad to make a space force. Still.. Maybe Barron will open a brothel for the the moon mines like his pioneering great grandfather.
Judging by the size of his hands, I'm guessing that his laser pen is barely large enough to amuse a cat.
Laugh all you want but space is already militarized and we'll dominate there too. At the very least this will be a four-star unified combatant command that will oversee space assets and operations, and is needed for the same general reasons SOCOM was formed in the 80s to oversee the special ops components of the services. At most it will be a separate service.
